End-of-Week Elmore (10/14/16): Nice Geas!

"Hey," she said as he placed the irresistible compulsion upon her. "You got a nice geas right there!"

Big things are happening on the home front, folks! More details in the coming days, but here's a hint: I'm about to live up to the title and intent of my blog! 

Have a great weekend, happy gaming, and stay tuned!

End-of-Week Elmore (10/7/16): Warriors of the Night

I come back to the old dusty roleplaying blog after a month or so, and what do I see? My blog link widgets are gone! Anyone else experiencing this right now?

Great job, Blogger!

Anyway, a quick google and I find out that the crack Blogger engineers are working on doing...something to the widgets. But have no fear, they say, all the blog link widgets will return, with all blog links intact.

Yeah, well, believing is seeing in this case, for sure.

PLEASE, Blogger, give me my links back!

Oh, and happy October everyone! Best damned month every created!

End-of-Week Elmore (9/2/16): Runes of Autumn

Ah, Autumn. The most wonderful time of the year! As soon as the first of the 'Ber months hits, I'm ready for Fall! I don't care what you say about equinoxes or the continuing heat. It's Autumn, baby!

The lovely Elmore illo above gives me good vibes and great expectations for the coming cooler days, when the smells of dead leaves and wood smoke float on chill breezes!

End-of-Week Elmore (8/5/16): Which Way to ComicCon?

"Hey lady, we're lost. You know how to get to ComicCon? We're trying to win best cosplay."

"No, but I know a great recipe for hossenfeffer. What's cosplay?"

End-of-Week MacDougall (7/29/16): A Different Larry

I was surfing around ye olde cyberspace this morning, looking for another Elmore piece to share, as per usual. But I stumbled upon the work of a different Larry: Larry MacDougall! You can check him out on Tumblr. His work seems familiar. Wondering what publications I've seen it in before...anyone have a clue to send my way?

Mr. MacDougall's work is reminiscent of John Howe in a way...perhaps because it the images seem dream-like, with a softness to them that's hard to describe. I also see shades of Charles Vess...but that's just me coming from my own biases. 

Ultimately, the art reminds me of what you might encounter in the Beyond the Wall RPG, as it depicts more mystical and whimsical settings and characters. What do you think? 

Have a great weekend, and happy gaming!

End-of-Week Elmore (7/22/16): White Dragon Lady

It's HOT under the "heat dome" covering much of the U.S. right now! I would love to have a white dragon in my employ, to use as a portable air conditioning unit. Stay cool, folks!
